Exopolysaccharides (EPSs) produced by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have received special attention as valuable products due to their potential applications as techno-functional and bioactive ingredients in foods. EPS production and consumption are an a...
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are capable of synthesising metabolites known as exopolysaccharides (EPS) during fermentation. Traditionally, EPS plays an important role in fermented dairy products through their gelling and thickening properties, but they...
Emerging pollutants (EPs), also known as micropollutants, have been a major issue for the global population in recent years as a result of the potential threats they bring to the environment and human health. Pharmaceuticals and personal care product...
The exopolysaccharide (EPS) produced by Leuconostoc mesenteroides SJC113 is a glucan with α-1,6 and α-3,6 branched glycosidic linkages that may promote human health. The aim of this study was to investigate in vitro the antioxidant, chole...

(1) Background: Men who have sex with other men (MSMs) are at high risk of being infected by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in western China. Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is an efficient way to prevent HIV transmission. However, adherence...
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and their exopolysaccharides (EPS) have the potential to enhance the quality of flour-based products. This study investigated the effect of EPS produced by Fructilactobacillus sanfranciscensis Ls5 on the quality of Mantou....
In this study, the antioxidant properties of intact cells (IC), cell-free supernatant (CFS), and cell-free extracts (CFE) and whole genome sequencing of Bifidobacterium bifidum E3 (B. bifidum E3), as well as the structural characteristics and antioxi...
Exopolysaccharide (EPS)-producing Lacticaseibacillus paracasei EPS DA-BACS was isolated from healthy human feces and its probiotic properties, as well as the structure and prebiotic activity of the EPS from this strain were examined. EPS from L. para...
Incineration has been regarded as a promising method to respond to municipal solid waste (MSW) challenges. However, its high cost and health impacts are the main barriers to the development of incineration. This study aims to investigate the cost-ben...
The global fight against HIV/AIDS has been significantly bolstered by the development and implementation of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), yet innovation in PrEP interventions, improved adherence and greater access are still needed to maximize its...
Marine microalgae have been used for a long time as food for humans, such as Arthrospira (formerly, Spirulina), and for animals in aquaculture. The biomass of these microalgae and the compounds they produce have been shown to possess several biologic...
Asian countries bear the greatest burden of the disease, with a majority (59%) of rabies-related deaths occurring in Asia. In order to promote best practices, we summarized national human vaccination guidelines across this region, to highlight differ...
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are beneficial microbes known for their health-promoting properties. LAB are well known for their ability to produce substantial amounts of bioactive compounds during fermentation. Peptides, exopolysaccharides (EPS), bacter...
Exopolysaccharides (EPSs) produced by probiotic bacteria have garnered attention due to their effects on the gut health of humans and animals. The nutrients that probiotics access during their growth are essential for producing beneficial effects on...
Producing biochar from residual biomass is an opportunity for health, environmental, and economic benefits to farmers in small traditional parcels, which are widespread in Latin America. This study presents a life cycle assessment of biochar in two c...
Background/Objectives: Fungotherapy has long been recognized as a therapeutic approach for treating and preventing various diseases. As an important representative of the so-called functional mushrooms, Chaga plays a crucial role in this system. Sinc...
Lben is a dairy fermented food that is largely consumed in Tunisia for its numerous health benefits that are related to the existence of probiotics. Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) are well known for their beneficial probiotic properties for humans, espec...
Streptococcus thermophilus is a Gram-positive, homofermentative lactic acid bacterium classified within the Firmicutes phylum, recognized for its probiotic properties and significant role in promoting human health. This review consolidates existing u...
